Clearly, the owners and employees think there is a lot going on.īefore things get started, Zak takes a moment to point out that they’ve taped off the location and turned off all the power to the building so as to eliminate as much noise contamination as possible.

There are claims of orbs, voices, children crying, and even that the spirits try to channel through the guests. In the hotel they claim to have multiple rooms with paranormal activity. They go so far as to say the more bravado you show the more likely you are to get groped. They also say they see shadows, apparitions, that people get touched and there is even a spirit they call Boss Man who was hung but still lurks around the place. They claim murders and hangings took place in there. Not an easy way to make a living by any stretch.Īs they’re doing the walkthrough the employees are very proud of “Spooky Hollow” which is the non-renovated section of the hotel. Not only was the borax toxic, but the heat would hit 130 and simply make life miserable. There were plenty of fights and murders and working conditions were pretty bad. Like most towns of the period it was pretty rough and dangerous.

It’s an isolated spot so the town had to be self sufficient. It was started in 1923, but now boasts 3 full time residents which isn’t surprising since it’s in the middle of nowhere. Zak and the team head out to Death Valley to investigate the Amargosa Opera House, an old borax mining town that has all but disappeared off the map.
